Color coding to prevent bedsores in the ICU
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study tests whether a color-coded system can help prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in patients staying in the intensive care unit. It may benefit patients at risk of skin damage from lying in bed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can help prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in patients staying in an intensive care unit. The AI may help nurses provide better care to reduce these injuries.
This study is testing a new nursing care plan to prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) in the ICU and see if it lowers how often they happen and what they cost. If you are in the ICU and don't have any bedsores yet, this might help you avoid getting one.
This study looks at how blood oxygen levels and other measures relate to the risk of pressure injuries (bedsores) in people staying in the intensive care unit for at least 3 days. It may help find ways to prevent these injuries.
This study tests a web-based training program for nurses to help prevent pressure injuries (bed sores) in intensive care patients. It looks at how the training affects both nurses' knowledge and patient outcomes.
This trial tests if a gel made from aloe vera and peppermint can prevent bedsores (pressure injuries) in intensive care patients who are sedated or on a ventilator. If effective, it could offer a simple way to protect the skin while in the ICU.
This study is adapting a tool that helps nurses predict and prevent pressure injuries (bedsores) for people in intensive care. By joining, you help make sure the tool works well for Turkish-speaking patients.
